Safety Relations
The LVH MedEvac Pre-Hospital Safety Orientation Program is a fundamental tool used to increase awareness among
the Fire, Police and EMS agencies that utilize on-scene response of the MedEvac helicopters. Discussed within
this program is the history of air medical evacuation, principles of trauma triage and when to request LVH MedEvac,
the process of setting up an appropriate landing zone (LZ), interaction between ground and flight personnel, and
the follow-up of patient care. Within the Eastern Pennsylvania EMS Region, each participant is awarded continuing
education credits, along with a LVH MedEvac Safety uniform patch.
